Samsung track record in India is very good,you can more or less be sure for April Launch for SGS 2 in India.

i dont doubt that it will be released in april in india. i just said it basically confirms that all the rest of us will indeed need to wait till may

whuat!!!... how come it gets launched first in India
wow! this is the first time
usually UK always gets all the new releases

Dont know for sure, but my guess would be they will be getting the Tegra version while the UK / US waits for Exynos.

Yaay...time to start saving... am assuming it will launch towards Apr end...good thing this news popped up. I got so impatient I nearly sold myself on the galaxy s...
Only thing is price will be around 35 k probably and then drop to around 32 k within fifteen days...:-(

Why do you think so that just US and UK gets Exynos? :|

"In the coming month" means April 30th 11:59:59 pm.

Awesome news. Hope it comes to the UK soon after. Am going to get rid of my IP4 for this bad boy! I don't need too many iOS devices in my life
We haven't been told if it's coming to Orange however, but were always told really late just before launches

Samsung Mobile Spain has confirmed on Twitter that SGSII will have an Exynos in spain and I have read today that SGSII will have an Exynos in France too. So we can think that all european countries will have Exynos.
Maybe the Tegra 2 version is for some minors markets like Russia.

Russia? Maybe... but Russia isn't small market. There are also many rich people and luxury lovers.
I don't want to predict anything, but Tegra might go to Latin America, Africa, middle east and some Asian areas.

I'm really hoping the US will get a Tegra 2 version fairly soon.

Which one will be more widely available and have better support from XDA? I want that one...

i have a hunch the Exynos will be more widely available than the "nvidia" one
there is a problem all the time with ATI / Nvidia chipsets, they always gets forgotten after a while (no drivers updates or available to the public)
so the Exynos will the the chefs choice, as we'll have the open source to keep building on them

It should have been Nvidia all the way,,reports are cuming that Europe will get SGS 2 with Samsung own Orion processor & Asia region getting SGS 2 with Nvidia

I am too waiting for the Launch of Galaxy S II in INDIA. Hope Samsung India will get it soon...

Add an 's' and the meaning is quite different. 'In the coming months' makes much more sense than 'In the coming month'. That would also give them at least 2 or 3 months. 'In the coming month' just sounds strange and is super ambiguous.

Update:- It seems like it has been pushed to Mayy release
Good news. But, is it going to be the thinner version of the 8.9/10.1 or the fatter version that is getting released in UK ?

But if i am correct that june date is of US launch for 10.1 & around summer for 8.9.
Samsung generally launches their products first over here.Samsung Galaxy S,Galaxy Tab,upcuming SGS 2{launching in April over here} all were launched in India at the earliest.

Does "launch" mean "on sale" or "annouce to be on sale sometime in the future"?
Any Update on India Launch
Guys does any body has update on the launch date.

European availability

I asked my local Samsung distributor on Facebook about availability and got a strange answer yesterday. They said it has been delayed because of Android software problems and should be here by end of July.
This sounds just like the rumour that i read about a week ago. I don't know what to think now. Does anyone have any information about this?
Only what you know - I have heard August as they ready 3.1 to ship with the device.
I picked up up a limited edition 10.1 on ebay for a reasonable price, and just got the upgrade to 3.1 so all's well on them here in the UK.
Perhaps see if you can get one from there if you can't wait...
I want a 3G tablet, so the LE is not a option, i already have a WIFI only Xoom for home use. Only thing that's holding me back from buying a Xoom 3G is the fact that the European Xoom's are not Google experience devices and don't get updates from Google.
So my only option for now is 10.1V, but I wonder if the 10.1V will get updates at all?
I don't understand how there can be a software problem. My Xoom runs on 3.1 for over a month now, also the GT10.1LE got the update and the GT10.1 was already released with 3.1 in US. And if i remember correctly then this rumor about software problems with Android 3.1 got already a response from Google and they said there is no such problems. So i just don't get it, how can Samsung make so much confusion...

Found this link on Samsung Poland Facebook page Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Poland at the end of June (Google translate)
In Poland there is now Samsung Mobile L!VE (http://www.samsungmobilelive.pl/o-sml.html).
I have already visited one stand and today I plan to see one more.
1. I have been told to expect it in the shops by the end of current month.
2. All specs on the stands list GT 10.1 with dual core 1,2 Ghz CPU (will try to take some photos 2day).
With recent pull back from 1,2 Ghz by Vodafone to 1,0 Ghz I really do not know what to think... especially that these stands are made by Samsung not some 3rd party company like Vodafone or independent distributor.

If you can, please ask if they have heard about the delay's because of Android software problems.
Vodafone changing the specs doesn't mean anything, it can be that they just released the information too early. This happened with Android 3.1 also, Adobe wrote in Android Market Flash update description that Android 3.1 is needed and this information was removed very fast and everything was denied until Google officially announced 3.1.
I found now one dealer in Germany that lists a release date. It is Conrad and they say on their webpage 4th of July 2011 for the 3G model. Let's see if that's true.
H.
I forgot the link: http://www.conrad.de/ce/ProductDeta...productcode=877127&zanpid=1514577257979813888
And the white 10.1 - june 30
http://www.conrad.de/ce/de/product/...hite-mit-Multi-Touch-Display/0403040&ref=list
And the black and white 8.9 - Juli 15
http://www.conrad.de/ce/de/product/...lack-mit-Multi-Touch-Display/0403040&ref=list
I don't have experience with Conrad. Are their expected delivery dates usually correct?

im not too sure how good my polish is but does that say that it has a 3.2mp camera and supports full hd? im quiet sure the 10.1 only supports 720p. so may be those specs are not 100%. thats to galtom for the pics thou. ne more info?
So, first release for Europe will be the 3G model?
Any news when the wifi only will be available?
That is exactly what it says.
Guys at the stand do not know anything about it as they do not really work for Samsung.
Basically there is a GREAT, BIG MESS around and with this tablet crated by Samsung . It is so big that now looks like even Samsung itself is not 100% sure what is coming out of his production lines.
If you ask Samsung through facebook or its websites in different countries you will get a lot of different answers but what seems to certain is:
all GT10.1 will run 1ghz tegra 2 soc
wifi will not have microsd
3g will have it
it should reach shops with android 3.1
touchwiz ux looks very good and works very good - for me it is actually more convinient and user friendly that google UI.

To be completly honest I have not asked as it is not the one I would buy :-(.
I shuold be later on 2day at another stand to compare unit model but do not know how reliable are infos given there.
As you see CPU shows 1,2 Ghz.... so I'd rather wait for something more official.
I just can not believe Samsung goes on (sill) making more mess, creating confusion and disinformation in regard of its tablet.
This is the first time I have seen official Samsung marketing showing 1.2Ghz... interesting
Have missed other stand 2day - sorry. And since it is a big holiday 2morrow in PL (not usual Sunday) I will not be able to get there 2morrow (it is not me but everything is essentially closed up) :-(.
Get back to you on this on Monday.

[Mid-February] ISC update - variable dates from Asus

As i have been looking over the web, searching Asus's FB pages, there were some answers when TF101 will get ICS update.
But the problem is because different Asus people answer us differently.
NOTE! All quotes are from their FB pages, you can check them out.
Nr.1: From: "ASUS North America": soon. Its in the process of being approved by google. once that is done we will be able to push it out to you guys.
Nr.2: From: "ASUS": Possibly Feb. No confirmed dates at this point. -Mark, ASUS
Nr.3: From: "ASUS Serbia" Lepa vest za korisnike Transformer TF101. Ice Cream Sandwich za isti se očekuje polovinom februara. (meaning: we get it in mid Feb.)
So, what do you guys think? We get that ICS in mid feb, sooner or later?
I kinda bet its gonna be later than that
Signed.
id say somewhere between next week and mid February.
How about when we get it, we get it. There are so many threads dedicated to this topic already.
I don't think it will be mid February that's for a Serbia. I think Asia asus might be closer to truth.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I would have to say that this is just one too many threads about this update. Geez!
close this topic, asus has already announced the ICS update will be sometime during the last week of January (which also includes the first week of February). We can only wait and see if they are accurate.

The Mayan didn't say anything about SSC. So i would say no.
Asus NA is right for NA consumers. Mid-February seems correct if you're living in Serbia. It has nothing to do with NA consumers since the launch appears to be staggered based on location.
So for NA consumers it's "soon". End of story.
I think it will come when Federer wins the Australian Open. Or when Nadal breaks another knee or something.

Although I can't find it right now, I remember reading one of Asus's facebook comments that said the US and Taiwan will get the update at the same time.
Asus Italia said at the END of february.... Anyway i think it will released at the end of this one.... i HOPE
Only when asus hears no more complaints from disgruntled transformer prime customers unable to update to ics due to "unknown serial number" debacle.
I suggest all those who are complaining daily about the delay of ICS jump over to the prime forum and see how much fun they are having with the ICS update. Yes I would like the ICS update, but not at the expense of the problems the prime folks are having. Maybe it is best we don't have it just yet.
Can't wait!
I voted never.
I dont expect anything from modern capitalist companies who care about numbers and not persons and dont give a damn about customers who created the base for the prime and the future autobot and so on....
the same applies to samsung with galaxy s and ics.

That's a lot of hate, but i agree, if I were to own this company i'd do everything for charity, making a profit is overrated!
I don't know how focused they can be on updating the old-gen Transformer, but I guess they will update, since both are catering to different market segments, and you might want to get the cheaper TF101 if it's good enough for you even with the TF201 out.
That said, I'm sure they'll be using the Prime as an ICS Guinea pig. I voted for mid-February, and I guess we'll get several minor updates after it's out (whenever it's out) for bug fixing (as it's been the case so far).
Damnit Asus... Yesterday they said "Awaiting Google approval", and now they're saying Mid-February...

It's a pity that when official 4.2.2 OTA arrives to our Notes, cars will fly trough the sky and smartphones will be a thing of the past - we all will have them implanted in the eyes.
Seriously, they're good and interesting rumours but I honestly doubt I will keep my Note by the time it comes.
will have to wait long long time to get 4.2.2 on our note:crying:
This is not only a rumour - it is a rumour by sammobile.
Its only purpose is to generate traffic on their website (guess why...).
What do you think how many people now will go back to this site and check about 4.2.2. news?
I like sammobile because of their service for new firmwares - it is excellent.
But their "insider"-attitude is ridiculous.
When I had the update from LSA leak to LSC they asked me to give infos about it. They are desperate for getting infos from everyone - and these people are called "insiders".

Not to be skeptical, I just don't believe a single word they are saying. They have released many false information before. It's a ploy to generate interests at their website plus their biasness to Samsung handsets is unbelievable. There's a prototype with a metal body for S4? HAH HA HA.

The only thing makes this 4.2.2 news worthy is when Samsung uses Linux 3.4 version with this release otherwise, this is just another glorified JB Android version.

much love Samsung, thanks for that!
I do remember a bit over a year ago, Google told their Android partners to ensure their phones got a minimum of updates. Can't remember if it was 18 months to 2 years worth or something like 4 major updates. E.g. 2.3.x to 4.0.x to 4.1.x to 4.2.x
Either way, I can't find the news article but apparently Google were not happy with the poor release of updates as it was holding Android back. Bad for business.
Given that it wasn't a request but more of a licensing demand, I expect Samsung to release 4.2.2 but no further. Basically we will hit 4.2.2 and then have a few minor tweaks and that's our lot.
The Note isn't even 2 years old yet, most people have a year to 18 months left on their contract, as its a contract, if there is a major bug, e.g. exynos root backdoor. Then contractually we can return the phone and demand to get out of our contract, that's why Samsung have to update for a minimum time frame or else the telco carriers will cry foul.

One M9+

Should this of been what HTC launched as the M9?
It would of been more of an incentive to upgrade going by the specs.
What's your views on the recently announced M9+?

An ugly duckling?
Actually, it will be coming to other countries too, didn't see this part in the post:
The HTC One M9+ is currently available in China only and will be ranged in other markets, to be confirmed locally at a later date. Please follow your local country pages for availability information.

Good to know, but is it worth it coming from M8 to M9? Currently using sense7 also, to me I don't think is worth it because I really want a bigger screen. That's why I will wait for HTC if not iPhone 6S plus.
M9+
Well as an early adopter I took the eBay plunge and bought an M9+ via China. I'm a Canadian on the bell network and moving from a HTC one M7 to the M9+ is definitely an improvement. My wife has the M8 so I think I can speak a little to the pros/cons a little.
First off the M9+ works fine on the Bell network. Since I saw the iPhone come with a fingerprint scanner I've been pretty jealous. Needless to say the M9+ scanner seems quite receptive and haven't had any issues to date. The larger qhd screen is nice and really those two features are really what made me go to the M9+ over the regular m9.
The one scary thing as an early adopter using a chineese phone getting my google apps installed ( gmail , play store, contacts , ) which I've become so reliant on. just having the ability to install any apps known to the north American market. Thanks to the xda community as there is a small writeup ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...perience-regarding-installing-google-t3111090 ) on getting them on the forum as your forced to use the chineese play store and when you can't read or understand any chineese it's a bit of a problem.
Haven't been quite able to figure out how to get rid of ChinaSense 7.0 and just go plain English but some notifications and blinkfeed is limited go chineese news but I find that minor. Hopefully there will be or already is a workaround.
Anyways 2 days in and I'm impressed. Ide reccomend going for the plunge if you're a HTC fan for sure.

hahaaaa.....
You will have Google apps and regular Sense 7.0 out of box if you buy the device,M9+, from India or Taiwan....
But the inconvenience is there is less channel to buy it on these countries then China.
If there were custom ROMs in the future and you would like to flash it,it will be all right.

I thought the release in Dubai/UAE was June 1st? Where is it already available in that case?
Available.. (with Comtel warranty - just anticipating your next question.. )
AED 2500 With 2 years Comtel warranty and price might drop down in the next couple of days
great news. I'm crunching on a chinese version, and so far so good... looking at how to create some international recovery and possibly some international rom for owners of the chinese version to switch to... first, i'll need to look at the chinese TWRP recovery if it can be switched to english twrp, but i'm lost yet in the chinese pages linked in some of the threads in this xda section
Is there a place that sells it online so I can have it shipped to KSA? It is still not released here yet
online sales not available but wait for a couple of days
its available now in some stores in Dubai

Waiting is a virtue I cherish but it would feel even better if I knew what for ?
I noticed incomplete phone number on the screen shot. Can you please share clear address and phone number of the store.
